With the poor ski conditions, I'm thinking about going to Henry Coe for an overnighter instead. Anyone have any good camping spots and/or scenic destination recommendations within about 10 or 15 miles from the headquarters? Last time I was there I went to Coit Lake, so I would prefer something different this time.

@ Chris: I like the southern part of the park. I'll get back to this thread later once I pull out my map – there are some nice loops about that length certainly from Hunting Hollow. You can stay flat for a bit before climbing up the ridges, depending on the loop; to be sure though, expect ~1,000ft in elevation in just 1-3 miles. Also FYI, I encountered frost and frozen puddles just this last Sunday at Coe despite an expected low of 42º.

I actually meant each way, but that seems like a great option. Do you know of any good spots to camp along that route? Looks like Los Cruzeros, Poverty Flat or China Hole are options, but any spots outside of the Western Zone?
